Few destinations boast as
much sun-drenched tropical
beauty or cultural diversity
as the islands of the
Caribbean. This region has a
distinctive fusion of
influences from Europe,
Africa and Latin America,
which make up a wonderful
quilt-work of cultures
amongst a breathtaking
backdrop of lush tropical
jungles, fresh water caves,
white-sand beaches, charming
cities and ancient ruins.
This region's histories and
cities are fascinating, from
the ancient Mayan city of
Tulum on the Yucatan
Peninsula, to the Chacchoben
ruins near Costa Maya. Hear
the legends of Aruban gold,
Jamaican voodoo or the
origins of St. Maarten's
half-French, half-Dutch
culture. Each island has its
own incredible story.

An amazing
deal on a
cruise
was nabbed
recently by
a Princess
past guest,
according to
published
reports. She
scored a
30-day South
American
cruise from
Los Angeles
to Rio de
Janeiro. Her
obstructed
ocean view
cabin was
only $1,697.
After you
include
government
taxes and
mandatory
gratuities,
it figures
out to be
only $74 a
day per
person!
That's about
a third
cheaper than
the list
price.
So, how did
she get the
deal;
Princess
e-mailed
her as a
frequent
Princess
cruiser. Past
guests have
been
getting
these
"exclusives-special
offers just
for you"
e-mails
frequently.
How we
sweeten the
deal;
For

offers we
can can
sweeten the

adding up

of wine,

Details
Did you know the
most overlooked
way to stretch
your dollar is
to form your own
Alaska cruise
group. Traveling
with family or
friends, can
lower costs
enough so you
can travel even
when the economy
is not that
good. Of course,
most of us don't
have the time -
or inclination -
to do all the
planning etc. so
leave all that
to your Travel
Agent. They know
how to get it
done!
to make the
calls and do the
research for an
entire group.
It's a big job.
However, booking
a group cruise
is easy for a
travel agent
...your agent
can create a
package that
works for you,
while your group
will realize
across-the-board
savings from
group discounts
that your agent
discovers.
Everyone's
favorite
kind
of
deal
is
an
unbeatable
one
-
and
we've
got
plenty
of
those.

From the Panama Canal's opening day to present, nearly a million ships have passed through the mighty locks. Encompassing tragedy and triumph, Spanish kings, conquistadors and five different American presidents, the building of this massive project spanned 400 years. And today, nearly 100 years after its completion, the Panama Canal remains one of the most vital trade routes in the world. In addition to Panama's man-made marvel, this voyage includes some of nature's most amazing creations in the Caribbean, Mexico and Central America.
Sun, sand and surf - what more could you ask for? The Mexican Riviera is filled with rich culture, bright flavors, scenic vistas, and most definitely, fun in the sun. The La Quebrada cliff divers of Acapulco will leave you amazed at their daredevil flying feats. The cobbled streets of Puerto Vallarta's Malécon are ideal for a relaxing stroll. And the deep-water lagoons, coconut groves and laid-back attitude of Zihuatanejo provide a delightful taste of Old Mexico. Don't forget Mazatlán's long sandy beaches and the chance to spot humpback and gray whales off Cabo San Lucas.There is so much to do and see on the Riviera. By day, swim, fish, shop or soak up the local culture. By night, savor the bold and fresh flavors of the region, like handmade tortillas and fresh guacamole, then pick up some new steps, dancing the night away to a salsa beat. It's time to go to the Mexican Riviera.
South America
This exotic, mysterious and magical region of the world is a feast for all five senses. South America's colorful cultures and alluring history feed your appetite for adventure and it becomes contagious. This is the region where you will experience contrasting cities, stunning archeological ruins, icy fjords, lush dense jungles and landscapes so remote that they've rarely been seen by anyone but the most intrepid explorers. With imagery that can only be described as otherworldly, sail Cape Horn's magnificent coastline, explore the misty ruins of Machu Picchu, discover the energetic vibe of Rio de Janeiro and much more. And if that's not enough, legendary Antarctica lies just beyond with its towering cliffs of blue ice. Without a doubt, it's a fascinating destination to explore.
World Cruise
A Princess World Cruise – the Ultimate Vacation
You’ve always wanted to see the world. With a Princess World Cruise vacation, you’ll sail on an exquisite small ship for more than 100 days and visit more than 40 spectacular ports, seeing more captivating cities, storied attractions and fascinating cultures than you ever dreamed possible. The Princess World Cruise – it’s truly an adventure of a lifetime.
HawaiiSouth Pacific
The South Pacific holds an abundance of natural treasures and the islands of Hawaii and Tahiti are just two of their better-known jewels. From the legendary beauty of French Polynesia's Bora Bora to the lush Hawaiian landscape of Kauai and the pristine beaches of Tahiti, immerse yourself in the diverse, yet singular Polynesian culture and experience the warmth of the Aloha Spirit. These lush tropical sanctuaries are the ideal places to relax, unwind and embrace "Island Time." Discover Hawaii and its South Pacific cousins
It's the ancient land of legends and kings, where empires were built and destroyed. Dreams and ideas came to fruition here, on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and in the grand halls of St. Petersburg. Today, the call of Europe is stronger than ever, with its brilliant mosaic of bygone eras and modern-day wonders. Stand at the base of the temple of Poseidon and it's as if you were at the threshold of modern civilization. But look beyond the hilltops of Athens, to the intricate canals of Venice or the gothic cathedrals of Spain; gaze northward to the shores of Normandy or the cliffs of Edinburgh; reach for the great Viking waters of Norway or the virgin tundra of North Cape. Only then will you begin to comprehend the scope and history of this most wondrous continent.
Autumn is glorious in Canada and New England. The sun still shines on the Eastern Seaboard's many seafaring towns and the cool fall air turns the foliage a dazzling crimson and gold. A trip to Canada and New England uncovers the history and character that started a nation. With the quaint Colonial charm of New England towns and the spectacular Canadian coastline, history is everywhere you look. Discover the very fabric of the cities and towns that are woven with history and experience French Canada's unique flavor and culture. Follow in the footsteps of our forefathers in cities like Norfolk, Charleston and Boston. Visit the bright lights of New York City. Fall in love with quintessential French Québec City and get charmed by quaint villages from Saint John to Bar Harbor. There's just no better way to experience the East Coast's autumn color than onboard a Princess cruise.
There remain few places on earth where you can truly breathe. Where space is measured not in feet or miles, but in endless horizons. A place where nature is so powerful, so dramatic, a personal encounter can change you forever. Thrill to white thunder in Glacier Bay, marvel at sunlight at midnight and close-ups of whales, eagles and caribou. Delight in Mt. McKinley's majesty and meadows carpeted with wildflowers. Amid unsurpassed grandeur and serenity, the true wilderness of Denali is calling. Make your Alaska escape complete with Princess.
Asia is full of ancient cultures, unparalleled in exotic beauty and mysticism. From Southeast Asia to the Far East and India, explore the myriad customs and traditions of each one. The fascinating countries of Vietnam, China, Japan and Thailand are equally amazing and yet vastly different. See the great Buddhas of Bangkok or experience a whirlwind shopping-spree in Hong Kong. Explore the temples of Japan and the monuments of Beijing. The magic never ends on this side of the world. The Silk Road, the Spice Route and Xanadu beckon. Wander among ornate gilded pavilions, ancient temples, modern skyscrapers and bustling street markets filled with foreign and wonderful fruits and vegetables, not to mention just about everything else imaginable. Asia is really an escape of a lifetime.
Australia and New Zealand provide some of the most unique and beautiful landscapes in the world. Spotlight the bustling metropolises of Sydney and Auckland, plus the incredible wildlife on land and at sea, and you have all the elements for a truly memorable vacation. From the sophistication of the Opera House and the world-class wineries, to the rugged individualism of the Outback and its inhabitants, Australia and New Zealand possess a wonderful diversity of sights, activities and cultures. Few travel experiences can rival the excitement of sailing into the glistening harbors of Sydney and Auckland, as well as inspiring attractions, such as scenic Fiordland National Park and the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef, just to name a few.

Did You Know....
The most
overlooked way
to stretch your
dollar is to
form your own
cruise group.
Traveling with
family or
friends, or
both, can lower
costs enough so
you can travel
even when the
economies not
that good. Of
course, most of
us don't have
the time - or
inclination - to
make the calls
and do the
research for an
entire group.
It's a big job.
On the other
hand, booking a
group cruise is
easy for a
professional
travel agent.
Your agent can
create a package
that works for
you, while your
group will
realize
across-the-board
